3 whataboutisms in a row. The question is: Why should blacks consider voting Republican, not why should they not vote democratic.

Blacks have a right to vote for who they want.

Certainly they can choose candidates based on their views on economy, national security, taxes, etc. like everyone else.

If they considered all of these why would a black person consider voting for a Republican (not why you think they should vote for a republican).

Black people tend to hold more traditionally conservative views. Republicans are more interested in getting you to stand on your own two feet than suckling at the government teat (as a general rule--of course there are exceptions). Republicans are generally pro-life, and the abortion industry has preyed upon the so-called "black community." Republicans are pro-2nd amendment, which affords blacks one of the single most powerful personal freedoms to defend ourselves from racists and other ne'er-do-wells.

The question is: Why should a black person consider voting Republican -- not why do you think a black person should vote Republican.

And the answer despite your inability to understand it is for the same reasons that anyone from any other group considers and does vote Republican

Small businessmen, blue collar types, tired of racial politics.

Why would a white person vote republican?

Are you asking for reasons why any of us believe in conservative ideologies, rather than more liberal ones?
That’s a loooooOOooong response.

In a nutshell ...
- All men are created equal
- Right to free speech
- Right to defend oneself
- Sovereign citizenship
- Protection from foreign threats
- Protection of religious expression
- Limited government

I can only assume that tex is putting forward the argument that there is no diversity of thought among black people and therefore there are only liberals among them

Liberal racism can be fascinating sometimes

A non-answer.

Why should a black person consider voting Republican -- and not why you think they should vote Republican.

I realize that you apparently don't have the intellect to absorb the answer but the answering means the same

Unless it is your position that all blacks think alike then the reasons they would vote for a Republican would be very similar to the reasons any other person votes for republicans

Social conditioning.

Those people think there's no way a black guy could break from the Dem party and women only vote Republican because their husbands force them to

Ain't that some shite?

They also see everything in terms of race so the idea that one good think outside of race is completely foreign to them

Well race and sex and other identity shite

You can only wrongly assume why I am putting forth that question because you don't want to answer the question I asked.
